  • He was possessed by what entity? 

  • @ABW941 He was possessed by many hylden souls that escaped.

  • no more questions.......time to die......that quote amazes me up to this day. That is epic voice acting

  • In the first lok under Avernus Cathedral there is an altar that demands a sacrifice of a baby if i remember right. I wander if it was connected to this.

  • Don't see how this change was any more grotesque than the others? Does Raziel remember Zephon?

  • "WHY...stay?" ahahahahaha!

  • Why did turel's eyes and voice changed? i counted three voices, his,a lighter one and another one. I heard he was taken from kain's time period and hound into what you see now in the video and who are the champions?

  • @reynaldo2063 His eyes changed because he was posessed by the Hylden. The other 2 voices you counted were from the two Hylden that took control over Turel and, after that, took control of Raziel.

  • @Edge73100 Oh but who are the 2 hyldens? and did raziel ever managed to get rid of the hylden?

  • @reynaldo2063 We don't know who they are. We only know that they posessed Turel, passed over to Raziel and were (I think) the main reason why Raziel killed Kain (or tried to do so). After Raziels fight with Kain his eyes never changed again so I guess he got rid of them.

  • @Edge73100 Oh i see cool thank you for the info but i remembered that at the end raziel allowed himself to be killed to give the power to kain to defeat elder god. I remembered that when i beat the game but thats the only thing i remember XD

  • @Edge73100 Also by the way who are the champions the hylden are talking about?

  • @reynaldo2063 sorry, this I dont know.

  • @Edge73100 Its ok thanks for tthe info though

  • @reynaldo2063 no problem ;)

  • @reynaldo2063 Raziel is the Hylden Champion and carries out his "destiny" just depicted by tearing Kain's heart out. they just didn't predict Kain would survive it and thus they did two predictions of the champions, instead of one continuous storyline.

  • @asurasyn Ohhh i see thanks for the information.

  • had to be the best scene in the whole series

  • One thing that's bothered me for some time-if this is in the time of the original Blood Omen, how is a mutated Turel in this time period? His body wan't raised by Kain until later in the series, and his de-evolution into this form would have taken place over a 1000 years after this time.

  • @danimal4202danimal The cultists beneath the Avernus cathedral summoned him through time as their god - he explains it briefly, and in BO1, if you went into the basement of the cathedral, you could find a book that explained it further.

  • @Joudas well it was Azimuth the Planer who summoned him by using the time device

  • @Joudas If i remember correctly it was Azimuth (guardian of dimensions) who summoned Turel.... aka she broke into Moebius's time streaming portal and took him from his time.

  • @Joudas Then Turel lived twice in the same period?

  • @Beef1234567891011 You think that's fucked up? Try the second Soul Reaver's final mission.

  • @Joudas nice. thanks for the detail!

  • The whole voice acting cast for this game is a list of pure bad ass! They make an already kick ass game, EPIC!

  • The devolution came from Kain. His soul was poisoned by Nupraptor's madness and he unwittingly passed it onto his sons through the method of their raising. As to why he did not devolve himself, there can be many reasons, like his pillar guardianship, the heart of darkness or maybe just because he was patient zero. Raziel would have devolved into an ugly bat if he hadn't been given a bath, too.

  • Raziel considered himself 'destroyed' in SR1, but when you compare him to his brothers, I'd choose him in a heartbeat.

  • wait so turel became a monster and all the other vampires right so wath would happen to kain? and raziel?

  • @dskull2000 Kain's "children" inherited his taint when they were made, and this "copy" of it caused their de-evolutions into the creatures Raziel kills. Thankfully for Raziel, he was cast into the Abyss and "killed" before the transformation could overcome him - otherwise he'd have turned out like the rest.

  • @Joudas

    Is the taint Nupraptor's corruption?

  • @Joudas now i understand if raziel wasn't thrown he would become a large de-evolved bat

  • @Joudas  Raziel would be pretty badass with his wings if he was evolved.

  • @dskull2000 I believe that their regression came from being starved of blood for extended periods of time, I mean it happened to Janos Audren in BO2 though that was because his blood was being drained, normally Janos wouldn't suffer such side effects because he's a vampire ancient and thus does not suffer from blood-thirst

  • @livedrainer9

    Janos Audron devolved either because he received the taint from the Hash (Hylden general, Sarafan Lord, or the Unspoken), or because he received Nupraptor's corruption (the corrupted heart of Darkness, which Kain had).

  • @TheThordir Janos devolves because of the Sarafan Lord constantly draining his blood.... as soon as the drain stops, he returns to normal

  • @dskull2000 Yes, and if you played the games, Kain would never really transform because he was pure. He was resurrected by the Necromancer Mortanius who used the very heart of Janos Audron, the oldest vampire ever. That and the fact that he was the Scion of Balance. I don't know what would've happened to Raziel, but he might have been the most advanced since he had past up the others in evolution and he was the first born. The thing is, that as Kain created more "offspring," the weaker they got.

  • 9:09 raziel got posessed be the hylden?

  • Turel is the coolest brother of Raziel

  • i hated killing all the brothers in all the games....especially rahab turel and dumah.

  • @THEIAN11 why?

  • @dskull2000 because they are badass haha

  • He was a crap xD

  • soo this is why i didnt fight turel in the first game its really sad wat happened to him

  • it actually took me awhile to realize that turel was blind and why the gongs affected so badly.

  • HOLY SH**!!

    that... thing is huge

    although, it would've been awesome if he came to your school to pick you up and get you home. Everyone would've crapped their pants

  • @lotten16 yeah than i could ask the big guy to decapitat my portuguese teacher

  • @dskull2000 decapitate?

    he can easily eat him/her in one bite.

  • @dskull2000 os stores de pt sao uma treta :P

  • @SergioSource ah desculpa conhessote? como sabes que sou pt? sao treta yah sao mas pk falaste nisso?

  • @dskull2000 pk os meus tb sao...

  • if only they remade ALL the Legacy Of Kain games for PS3 :D

  • Was someone already sacrificed or was Raziel the sacrifice?

  • Joudas, bless you for hosting these.

  • Best voice acting I've ever heard in game

  • Next to Raziel. Turel was the strongest of the brothers so it follows that his mutation would be more defined and less monstrous than the other brothers like melchiah and zephon (the weakest brothers) who were just mutated monsters.

    BTW I'm pretty sure Turel is either blind or very near sighted, thats why his sense of smell is increased and so is his hearing (thats ehy the drums hurt him).

    "I know that voice" that line supports his blindness as well as when he smells Raziel and recognises him.

  • Is Turel blind?

  • @2010metalmaster he isnt blind it just happens to the victims of the hylden for example when janos was possed by thr hylden lord his eyes tunred white and after this video mortainus gets possed also and his eyes turned white

  • @jakespnl463

    He's not blind but he IS partially sighted (as confirmed in Prima's official guide). His sight was failing while his other senses got stronger (kinda like how Rahab gained a resistance to water at the cost of becoming vulnerable to sunlight), probably cause he's been in the dark so long.

  • @2010metalmaster He also has very enhanced hearing, that's why he's recognizing Raziel of his voice and that also allows to do that trick with the gongs

  • So when does Defiance take place form the looks of it it takes place after Raziel was thrown into the abyss

  • @Scorpino123 It follows Soul Reaver 2.

  • @Joudas wait wait how can that be turel if hes his mutated form which happens to all of raziels bretheren after hes thrown into the abyss? is there something im missing?

  • @Scorpino123 The cultists in the Avernus Cathedral summoned him from the future, thinking him their god. They don't know he's in the future, but there's a hidden room in Avernus in Blood Omen 1 that lets you go down to the underbelly and read about this in a few books and runes there.

  • @Joudas ooooh ok man thanks alot i havent palyed Defiance yet i beat the first soul reaver when i was 9 and im currently working on the second one thanks for explaining that to me

  • sorry it wasn't intentional

  • @Joudas I think Turel is the sadist of all Raziels brothers, he doesn't really seem all there in the head. Hes been ridin so long by the hylden possessing him that he attacks Raziel. If he had been more rational or if Raziel had of had a way to force the Hylden out of him I think Turel would have become a ally, or adleast not a enemy. It would be interesting in the next game if the explain who or what summoned him, i personaly doubt a buncha cultist could have.. maybe the hylden did it.

  • @Throrine Actually, Azimuth the human Guardian of the Pillar of Dimension summoned Turel from the future (The Soul Reaver 1 era) using the time streaming device that she stole from Moebius.

  • @Joudas actualy they summond him to the past remember due to all the time travling fight happens just befor kain kill mortanius in the first blood omen

  • @LordAKiraAndou "To the past", "From the future" - same thing, really. To Turel, they summoned him to the past. To the cultists, they summoned him from the future.

  • "Why....stay...would I remain IF I COULD GET OUT?????"

    The mighty Turel stuck in a dirt pit LOL.

  • Truly the greatest acting in a game series, ever. LoK had amazing talent on it's side, something that most games are only now starting to have more and more.

  • great game

  • Turel isn't a bad dude,he's just got crazy with that damn hylden,fuck the sarafan lord.

    the only brother wich is nice,not so nice to Raziel.

    Same thing to Magnus he's the only 1 of Kain's serviants wich is not bad and it is nice with him (Kain)

  • Raziel first becomes crazy after Janos is dead right in front on him in the sarafan age after time & time ago Raziel returns normal (about his mind) and escapes from the Underworld,after Turel's death his last brother he becomes worst,a Psychopath,a monster. After he killed Kain,he becomes normal,the hylden inside of him disseapears. Man all of Nosgoth whants Raziel to bee MAD! This is unfair i hate when they're playing psycho with Raz

  • So the gist of this, I believe, is that Turel's body is possessed by the Hylden Lord (green glowy eyes, changed voice), and the Hylden Lord is who summoned Turel from presumably the original Soul Reaver timeline (hence why he's not in that game).

  • @wayne62682 nonono. Turel was brought by Lady Azimuth the Planer, Matriarch of Avernus and Guardian of the Pillar of Dimension. Just like Kain mentions back in Blood Omen 1, she liked to summon exotic creatures not only from other dimensions, but from other times too. And what's possesing Turel is three different Hylden, that managed to enter Nosgoth using Turel as a "durable vessel". The Hylden Lord was currently inside Mortanius.

  • Raziel: Why do you stay in this terrible place?

    Turel: Why...stay? Would I remain if I could GET OUT?!

    Raziel: Geez, sorry I asked!

    XD

  • Hash'ak'gik! Hash'ak'gik! Hash'ak'gik!

  • @SoulRippster One of us, one of us, gooble-gaable, gooble-gaable!

    XD

  • i wonder will they ever make a remake of soul reaaver 1 in ps3 and 360 grafiks that would be awersome

  • Turel is so badass.

  • has anyone ever noticed how when turel says free and when his soul goes to raziel a green mist appears also that is the hylden leader and tahts how raziel got possed and killed kain becuz the hylden leader needed the scion of balance out of the way so he can destroy the pillars

  • @jakespnl463 yeah i never quite got that, clearly Raziel become possesed but never do they show him solveing this problem and while Raziel Killing Kain somewhat seems as if it was the influence of the Hylden, Raziel fully intended to kill Kain from the start! Perhaps i missed something, but that has always bothered me.

  • @PsychoFryday

    There can't be a soulr reaver four if there isn't a soul reaver 3. This has always been known as Lok: defiance

  • @technopixie96 plus after Legacy of Kain: Defiance even Soul Reaver 3 is impossible, isn't it?

  • @ghostking0

    Yes because the original writer, Amy hennig, quit after this game. Plus tony jay (who voiced E.G.) Died soon after this.

  • is there going to be a SR4?

  • turel scares the crap out of me

    but hes still my fave XD

  • Well, Turel is much better than Melchiah, Zephon, Rahab isn't too bad, same with Dumah. But when you have sharpness all the way up on your television and play SR1, you'll scare the living crap out of yourself.

  • What bad luck at 1:21. Poor Raziel. You can kinda figure that would happen.

  • Would be cool to see how Soul Reaver 1's BOSS monsters would look if they were all remade for the PS3... =)

  • I'm curious, what would they look like? Good question, huh?

  • That's exactly my fuckin point... I would dig it because you think of the badass levels like The Underworld, The Drowned Abby, Sunlight Glyph, and even Kain's Empire... huge levels, than take the Boss monsters Zephon, Rahab, Dumah... all badass looking in old classic, and all good ideas for the new game... it's a game with huge potential. No mistake about it ^_^

  • I already found out that if I turn my TV's shaprness all the way up, it looks like Melchiah is on the PS3. You DON'T want to see it. Trust me. When I get the chance, I'll use my camera to take a picture of the sharpness.

  • @Shawn11986 Zephon would freak me out!

  • @Shawn11986 I'd love to see Melchiah in HD, personally.

  • @Shawn11986 couldnt agree more

  • @Shawn11986 id piss myself xD

  • @SergioSource well I did read in a magazine article from Game Informer: They were discussing the flow of remakes for the new systems, from devil may cry's reboot to a handful of others... They discussed a top 10 list choice of games that "Should" in all fairness get a crack at the new hardware we got cooking... and Legacy of Kain, was # 5. Personally with that in mind, I think a nice re-vamp of Soul Reaver, or a fresh Blood Omen RPG style game, OH those would be off the chain for sales for sure!

  • who's having Turels voice?

    he sounds familiar

  • Gregg Berger voiced Turel.

    He also played Jecht in Final Fantasy X, Ripto and Hunter in the Spyro the Dragon Series and Captain Blue in the Viewtiful Joe series.

  • why turel is in the lok defiance??

    he is never go to te past...

    how is posible?

  • Semi- Spoiler (I think) I think this is the future, Raziel gets sent from the past to the future. I think Mobius the Timestreamer had something to do with it.

  • no i don't think so. apparently he was transported by Azimuth the Planar

  • tengo una duda...

    en soul reaver 1 al final viajan al pasado (kain y raziel)

    en soul reaver 2

    viajan a la era serafan...

    en el LOK defiance la historia continua pero sin embargo turel esta y a sufrido mutaciones tras miles de años o varios.

    pero por ke turel aparece en el pasado si nunca viajo al pasado???¿??

    y por ke es ta tan cambiado si en esa era no era nisikiera vampiro...

    ¿como es posible?

  • Tural was a good guy of Raziel borthers. The other bro was sooooo badass. And know Raziel killd my favorite of Kain's sons. Freaking Raziel. Raziel is badass in Defiance.

  • @LOKBLUDOM3N you know that turell and dumah were the two brothers that threw raziel in to the abyss right?

  • ok now i learnt that the wraith the possessed turel is Hylden Lord. but why did turel want to eat raziel. he have avoiding death so long only to lose control and be killed... it not like Raziel is full of fresh blood

  • i love turel he is awsome

    No No more Questions

    No more Worship

    Time to Run

    Time to Scream

    Time.........To Die...

    fucking love that line

  • @TheSteinmetz342 best line in the game.

  • @TheSteinmetz342 Turel creeped me out...I mean I thought about hiding under the covers of my room when I first heard that!

  • at 3:00 why the hell does Turel have Malchiahs sysmble on his shoulder and his form is like Zephons children.

    when i was 9 and played soul reaver 1 Zephons children freeked me out.

  • It isn't Melchiah's Mark. It is just a vein popped on his skin or a scar that looks like it.

  • Zephon & his children are freakin psycofaqs

  • how is controlling turel?? and how would turel turn stronger if he "eat" raziel?

  • this was perhaps one of the most chilling moments in the lok series - the meeting of turel.. i'm somewhat confused - what did raziel mean by "the others were grotesque but..." but what..?! you are eaven more grotesque..? you are enormous..? you are the most animal-like..? WHAT..?!

  • I can only assume that his form was more "divine" as he stayed mostly vampiric. in rekation to the others, rahab,zephon, malchiah...he still looked lie a vampire roughly instead of the twisted abominations like his other brothers who changed FAR too much

  • Turel's voice actor is really good.

  • Makes me wonder what Raziel could have evolved into.

    Kain doesnt evolve...how come?

    And how DO they become vampires in Legacy of Kain?

    And wtf. Raziel has no blood hes a Wraith rofl

  • Kain doesn't DEvolve because he was the last of the vampire born from the heart of darkness. it is suggested by the writers that Kain raised his lieutenants from bloodletting (which was in between Blood Omen and Soul Reaver 1).

  • what was the ability he gave you?

  • He gives Raziel the ability to use telekinesis. (Previously he is only able to blast enemies such as the Reaver Bolt provided, after this encounter he can pick them up, hold them, and throw them around like Kain can.)

  • I really like how the LOK team has a knack for setting the right insturmental theme for the boss battles.

    However, I think the game would of had a more positive diversity if the musical theme was changed between landmark locations and not so much of overusing the "necropolis" theme.

    Like I'm not saying it's was bad or anything but I think it would of been more suggested in a opinion perspective. : )

  • why did all razies brothers turn into beasts?

  • They evolved

  • are you sure? none of them seemed to like there form very much, and why didnt they grow wings, like raziel?

  • It was the way kain created them, his corruption made them turn into their monstrous forms

  • I think it has to do with Nupraptors madness that affected all the guardians including Kain. The brothers eventual devolving into beast I think is a reflection of the madness that was carried over from Kain. I also think that if Raziel had not been thrown into the lake of the dead that he would have eventually turned into a beastie as well. Just my take on it.

  • OMG it's BATMAN! Or Manbat..meh X3 LOK for the win!

  • well never really coz they stop after a tony jay died and Amy Hennig left

  • Oh man, its so fucking badass when he says: "Time to run, time to scream, time... to die."

  • One of the best story's ive come across since shadowman. I would love to see this on next gen consoles some day.

  • if this was in sr1 u would here the anoying but in at the end with the elder god saying :Consuming turel's soul has provided you a way forward with new abillity with enhanced vision NOW HURRY UP AND GO KILL KAIN...

  • wait whose turel anyway? where does he fit in?

  • He's one of Raziel's brothers - the only one whom Raziel did not kill in SR1.

  • ye but we dont see his crypt in the sarafan tombs

  • Yes we do - look again. When Raziel walks towards his own crypt, it shows a view from in front of him, with him walking towards the camera and the camera pointed at the door - to the left of the door is Turel's crypt.

  • yeah

  • When i watched this and realized what it meant it sent shivers down my spine, i remember a level on Blood Omen 1 where you fight your way through Avernus Cathedral as Kain, such an epic story.

  • Poor turel :( I feel sorry for him. Used only as a living mailbox for Mortanius and Moebius.

  • How is turel in the past.

  • He was summoned by the folks at Avernus.

  • He was teleported there lol. Poor guy

  • wait these guys arent evolved they have been cursed and corrupted as would raziel...but instead of being cursed in to some kinda creature kain casted raziel into the abyss to become less ugly and more powerful....thus kain didnt betray raziel........he gave raziel an advantage of some sort

  • that was kain's plan all along

  • why did the vampires mutate but kain never did?

  • He did mutate a little since he looks different in Blood Omen. I guess since he the balance guardian, maybe he has some sort of ability that helps him to stay balanced between Hylden and vampire.

  • ok now im really confused, i didnt know kain was part hylden, i thought he was just vampire

  • Well from what I've been reading, Kain drank Hylden blood so he must had mutated but not entirely.

  • now is this from a book or is this from the game?

  • Damn looking at what Turel has become...I'm scared to know what Raziel would have eventually changed into...

  • Did they all become like this through evolution?

  • Surely he would have changed into some flying thing similar to Janos Audron!

    Making the Razielim a flying vampire clan...

  • You have every play blood omen 2?

    I'm thinking Raziel would have become something similar to what Janos became after being hooked up to The Device

  • many said he could have possibly turn in to some sort of a bat

  • lol, hash ak GEEK

    yes, i know thats not how u spell it, im just tryin to make a joke

  • damn it i knew some one was gonna crack that joke damn yooouu

  • I though Defiance story got so complicated that it was hard to care any more.

    Just a question - If Raziel was first a Sarafan, later vampire and finally the Soul Reaver, which was originally vampire weapon, how come he was also a Hylden champion? Why would a vampire transform to reasemble a Hylden?

  • He was the Hylden champion in that he resurrected Janos, which would (without Kain's intervention) have heralded the revenge of the Hylden race. He enabled their potential victory.

  • How come vampires are mutatung into these wierd creatures?

  • I think it's because the Dark gifts that Kain gave them. My guess it that the gifts expand in power and so does the body of the gift's owner.

  • It's explained at the start of Soul Reaver that the Vampires created by Kain experience mutations as they age. These Vampires have been alive for thousands of years when Raziel fights them, so they've been mutating for a very long time.

  • It is Nupraptor's madness that corrupted Kain, and thus his spirit. Because all of his "sons" have a bit of his soul they too share the corruption and this makes them evolve, or rather devolve to this after many centuries.

  • Every Kains vampire mutated in time because of corruption he carried since his birth.

  • i need help understanding the story line....

  • What about it, specifically?

  • is it just me or is melchia's symbol on turels left shoulder?

  • yes it is

  • one question... when raziel kills turel he gains his dark gifts... but the thing that bothers me is you can see raziels eyes turn a hylden green so... is there any chance perhaps the hylden inhabited his body then?

  • Exactly right. They didn't reveal themselves, rather inflaming his anger and making sure that anything Kain said would be taken the wrong way.

    That the Hylden were influencing and empowering Raziel was made clear when he cast Kain into the exile-realm the Hylden had been shunted into.

    It had to move then, inhabiting the Heart of Darkness--Janos Aldrin's heart--so that he would be possessed from the moment he was revived.

    Is it any wonder Janos was suicidal when he was restored in BO 2??

  • no janos' heart wasnt possessed,janos was possessed when kain killed mortanius at the pillers,the dark entity inside mortanius then moved to janos

  • Turel looks like Janos in BO2 when he's being used by the Hylden

  • 1:09 hoollly shite! lol creepy lookin at raz sometimes lol

  • Hey I have a little joke story with Raziel and Turel: R: Turel? T: Yes, you remember me? R: Difficult to forget such a face. T: What?! R: You were ugly already then, but now you are just stupid ugly. T: What??!! R: Really, you are so ugly, I wouldn t forget such a face even with amnesia. T: I will kill you!!! R:Wait. Let me show you a suprise. Come closer, it is in my closed hand. Turel comes closer to Raziels hand, the Wraith Blade jumps out and stabs Turel in the head,he dies. End
  • I really wonder waht happened to Turel, and I wonder why didn t it happen to Raziel? He would look cooler if he was a giant bat-alien-like mutant, rather than a skinny, jawless wraith.
